Has anybody tried networking one of the new powerbooks with their 200A5 thought the 802.11b?

Me and my friend have been trying. He creates the network and I can connect to it. We've set it up as adhoc networks and everything, but we still can see to do anything.

I have a folder shared and he is not able to connect to it. He is connected to the internet through his PCS phone, and my computer does not detect the network connection and try to use it.

When I click on the details for the connection there is not IP address, subnet mask, or gateway listed. I'm thinking that has something to do with it.

I think what what needs to be done is set-up the powerbook as a DHCP server, but I don't know how.

Has anybody done this before? Is it possible at all to do it through the wireless, or do we have to use 10baseT?

Any ideas?

Thanks in advanced for all your help.
